  • Four Hundred Monitor, November 10

    November 10, 2021 Jenny Thomas

    “Parting is such sweet sorrow” is an oxymoron Juliet cries to her lover, Romeo, when he departs for the evening. It might also appropriately describe IBM’s separation from Kyndryl, which was finalized last week and now allows the two companies to begin focusing on their own priorities while looking forward to a time when they might be reunited in the domination of their chosen space. For IBM, it’s back to full attention on AI and the hybrid cloud. And as we see from the news this week, Big Blue is wasting no time in refocusing its efforts and we hope to see some emphasis on our IBM i ecosystem.

    [Webinar] Modern IBM i: It’s more than DevOps – It’s modernizing RPG, Database, Fields and SYNON
    September 21

    IBM i modernization can be a daunting and complicated task.  It involves many aspects from modern processes with DevOps to modernizing the backend – RPG fixed- to free-format, moving from DDS to DDL, field expansion, and if you’re SYNON, modernizing code that was created in the 70s with a code generator.  They are all important topics for protecting your IBM i investment and extending it into the future.
